I believe that all therapy is very personal and has to fit with you, therefore my main focus is always you and your journey. This means that I want to provide a safe and accepting environment where we can work together to bring about the changes you want to make. I have had my own counselling journey through the years and know how the counselling experience supported me. So, some years ago I decided to pay it forward. I bring knowledge, expertise and experience from holding a BA Honours degree in Psychology and a Professional diploma in Psychotherapeutic counselling practice, all I ask is you bring the person you know best. You.

Therapy is a journey. We can choose to ignore that part of us that hopes for more in life and in many ways that's the easier option. The therapeutic journey is not easy. It can be extremely painful at times, but it can also help us to live again. Since you are reading this there is part of you that wants change, that wants to live in the way you once imagined. It's not too late. I can't give you the answers you are looking for, you have those. I can help you to connect more to yourself, which might mean working through some painful parts of your story. It won't be easy, but I will stay with you, as long as it takes.

Well done for taking the first step to accessing support and alleviating some of the distress you are feeling. This is very often the hardest step and almost always the most daunting one but I hope that reading my profile encourages you to take the next step and begin your therapeutic journey. I am experienced in helping adults and young people to overcome anxiety, build self- esteem and confidence, fight depression and low mood, achieve healthy relationships and manage intense or overwhelming emotions such as anger.

Can you relate to some of this? • To the outside world you seem to have what you need. Sometimes you tell everyone that you are OK..but you know there is a problem. You can’t figure out why you are unhappy Maybe things have happened to you in your past and you just want to understand how this has affected you? • Or you are trying to cope with a lot of emotional and or relationship issues, and it is just too hard? In the end you just want to feel better.

At times life can be challenging and can sometimes feel overwhelming. Finding yourself looking at counsellors it seems you have already made the decision that things need to change. I understand how difficult this first step can be and the courage needed to take the plunge to make that call and ask for help. I can offer you a warm and caring space where you will be supported whilst you start to look at the issues that are troubling you and together we can unravel the emotions and confusion that is holding you back from living a happy and fulfilled life.

Does this sound familiar: I don't know what to think? What is going on? Who can I share this with? How can I deal with this? When will it end? How can I change this? Who will support me? If you can relate to any of these you have come to the right place. I am a qualified and experienced counsellor and life coach working with adults, families and teenagers. My major interest is helping others to build up fulfilling relationships, develop effective communication skills and connect to who they are. I work towards synergy between the mind and the body. I’m also qualified and trained to use the Rewind Technique.

Jag Singh Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBPsS

The decision to begin counselling and psychotherapy can be fuelled by many questions, such as: What can I do and change to feel better? Who am I? How did I become this person? Who do I really want to be, deep down? As a practicing integrative counsellor and psychotherapist in Birmingham City Centre, I support individuals in exploring and forming meaning to their distress. I work on establishing a trusting therapeutic relationship in a safe and non-judgemental environment, enabling us to explore the concerns you may bring, your feelings and thoughts.
Nazia Nazir
Counsellor, MBACP

Sometimes we feel we are not happy in the life that we are living and coming to terms with it or making a change can feel like an insurmountable task. Or we endure a loss that leaves us feeling utterly devastated; the breakdown of a friendship, the demise of a marriage, the death of a significant person, a parental or sibling estrangement. You may not even know what is wrong but you have an innate sense that your anxiety and low mood need your attention. That the sadness and loneliness you are experiencing is overwhelming and you want to reach out to find some happiness. But we can lose our sense of perspective at such times.
Carmen Vondra
Psychotherapist, MSc, MBACP

Sometimes the problems we are faced with, can overwhelm us and our mental wellbeing and behaviour are affected by it. Even our upbringing and early experiences in life can impact on the way we feel and behave now in adulthood. Therapy can help to open up about our problems and experiences, making sense of them, process them and move forward. With this in mind, I will be by your side, helping you to explore the difficulties you face in a safe, non-judgemental, warm and nurturing environment. We will process your emotions and feelings and find new coping skills and solutions, enabling you to grow towards the person you strive to be.
